Robin, who was brought up in Chorlton, was filming at nearby Alder Forest Funeral Home. for the BBC programme, where celebrities trace their family trees.
Funeral director Eric Birch was interviewed on camera and was told that research had traced a Gibb family member, a nurse, who used to live in the property in the 1930s.

Eric said: "I didn’t know the crew was coming, they just turned up and said they were filming for Who Do You Think You Are?

"I was interviewed and then I had a chat with Robin.
"He was a nice bloke and really down to earth. He caused quite a fuss and there were loads of people taking pictures."
After filming, it is understood Robin went on to the Marriot Hotel in Worsley for lunch.
